So I am planning on running a temur Midrange deck for Tommorow Nights FNM, during testing I noticed two VERY perful interactions that drive the deck pretty well. The first is Kiora/ Courser of Kruphix. Kiora's -1 allows you to dig for additional cards and can net you a total of 2 cards and 1 land fro 2 life everyturn. So Turn 4 you can draw 2 cards, gain 2 life, and play an additional land all for 4 mana. Pretty neat. The second is Thassa and Keranos. Everyone knows that Keranos is a big badass, but thassa makes him that much better, With thassa triggering in upkeep, you can scry away a land to dig for a card you wanna see. Combine that with polukranos, Surrakk, Strombreath Dragon, Savage Knuckleblade, and Sarkhan, You will be able to rest on more threats than they can ever deal with. Thoughts? Are there Better iterations of this interaction?
Jace, the Living Guildpact also works well with Keranos, God of Storms and Chandra, Pyromaster .

Rotation is on the 26th, so tomorrow. Most shops are doing a Draft, however, to help get the new cards into circulation, then the first New Standard FNM is the following week.

Tomorrow is the first day that KTK is Standard-Legal. Exactly how your LGS plans to celebrate this is up to them.

Works super well with taking out a blocker and letting your monsters swing through OR simply netting you an extra card per turn with the 0 ability. Becomes even better with Courser of Kruphix because you can either play a land off the top or exile and play a creature/spell, without having a guess what card is on top.
